Let's divide 50247 by 87
Our goal is to divide 50247 by 87.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 50 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 50 by 87, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 502 / 87

Advancing to step 3:
The number 87 fits into 502 5 times, leaving a remainder of 67.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 435 from 502 to get 67.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 67 and repeat the process: 674 / 87

Step 4:
87 can be fit into 674 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 65.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 57.0
Deduct 609 from 674 and we're left with 65.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 65, then carry on: 657 / 87

Moving on to step 5:
87 can be fit into 657 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 577.0
If we take 609 away from 657, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
480 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 577.5
Subtracting 435 from 480 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
450 divided by 87 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 577.55
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 435 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 577.55, and the remainder is 0.015.
